What a holiday, and even more so the New Year without games, entertainment and competitions. Adults, just like children, want to have a fun and interesting New Year's holidays. These games can be used when drafting holiday scenarios activities for adults dedicated to the New Year.

Fun games, contests and entertainment at the New Year's party

Merry relay

You can play in pairs and teams. Two participants are given two pencils, one matchbox and one glass each (naturally, not empty). You need to take pencils in your hand, put a matchbox on them, put a glass on the box and overcome a certain distance. Whoever hasn't spilled the vodka will drink it.

Chained by one chain

Teams of 3-7 people participate. According to the number of participants, hats are sewn to the rope with an interval of 1 meter. Participants put them on their heads and dance to the music. The team that lost the cap earlier from the participant loses. You cannot hold the hat with your hands.

Nesting dolls

All those present are divided into two teams, stand in a line one after another, each holding a scarf. On command, the second player from the back ties a scarf to the first (it is strictly forbidden to correct or help each other), then the third to the second, and so on. The last player ties the penultimate one and shouts out victoriously: "Everyone is ready!" The whole team turns to face the opponents.

You can play on the speed, quality, appearance of "nesting dolls" - the main thing is to have time to take pictures of funny "nesting dolls".

Uh or eh?

Two teams are formed: "M" and "F". One team makes two words and a wish for each of them. For example, "Uh" - kiss two, "Eh" - kiss everyone. Then, one player from the second team is called. But none of them should know the words and desires. They ask him: "Wow or eh?" Whichever word he chooses, such a desire will be fulfilled. You can make comic desires. For example: crawl between the legs of the opposing team and drink a glass of alcohol.

Happy well

The host takes a bucket, pours some vodka into it and puts a glass in the bucket. The player must hit the glass with a coin. If his coin hits the vodka, the next participant throws his own coin. If the player hits the glass with a coin, he takes all the coins from the bucket and drinks vodka.

Relay race for a friendly company

There are two teams involved. The more people there are, the better. In each team, players line up in a column: man - woman; a chair is placed in front of each column for the first member of the team to sit on. He holds a match in his mouth (naturally, without sulfur). At the command of the leader, the second player runs up to him, takes the match without using his hands and sits down in the place of the first. The first runs to the tail of the column. The relay continues until the first team players are on the chair again.

With cake

The guests are divided into two teams. Each team is given a cake in a cardboard box tied with a rope. Each team has a special participant with a bottle of vodka (beer will do) - he gives water to his team. Everyone's hands are tied behind their backs, including those of the "drinkers".

The first team to eat their cake and drink vodka wins. Without vodka, the cake does not count!

"The sea is worried" in a new way

Remember the old game "The sea is agitated", which you all probably played as a child. Let's recall the rules. The leader is selected. If there are too many applicants for this role, then you can count. Here is a simple counting rhyme: “The apple rolled around the garden and fell right into the water:“ boo ”.

The presenter reads the words, and the players think over their figure at this time. At the word "freeze" the players freeze in any position. The presenter can “turn on” anyone at will or who will move. The one whose presentation the presenter likes the most becomes the presenter. If the presenter doesn't like something 3 times in a row, they change it.

The host's words: "The sea worries once, the sea worries two, the sea worries three - an erotic figure, freeze on the spot!"

The rest of the participants act in a similar way. The presenter begins to tap a simple rhythm with his left hand. His neighbor on the left repeats the rhythm on the leader's left leg. The leader's right neighbor hears the rhythm and also begins to beat it with his left hand on the leader's right leg. And so in a circle. It is not so easy to learn how to beat off the correct rhythm by all participants, so for a long time someone will get lost. If there are enough people, then a rule can be introduced - the one who made a mistake is eliminated.

Competition progress. In this competition, it is proposed to take an example from the inhabitants of Kenya, among whom it is customary to spit at each other on New Year's, which in this country is wishes for happiness in the coming year.

Competition progress. Germany boasts a curious tradition of jumping into New Years, where participants stand on chairs and jump forward from them at midnight. The next one won.

The same is proposed to be carried out in this competition. Moreover, the jump should be accompanied by a joyful exclamation. In principle, you can do without chairs, just jump from a place. Accordingly, the winner is the one who jumped the farthest into the New Year.

Competition with glasses

Number of participants: everyone.

Required items: a glass filled with contents such as water or wine.

Competition progress. The participant must run around the table, holding the glass by the stem with his teeth and not spilling the contents. The longer the leg, the better. Accordingly, the winner is the one who went around the table the fastest and did not spill the contents.

We are always looking forward to the New Year with great impatience, because this is a favorite holiday for both adults and children. Every family carefully prepares for it: they plan, invite guests, buy outfits, think over the course of the event so that it does not turn into a simple overeating. New Year's table games for adults are the best option for those who have invited guests and want to have fun. If you yourself are embarrassed to act as a presenter, you can define him at the table. Therefore, boldly and without hesitation, we appoint the most active of the guests as responsible for games for adults. Well, preparing them will not pose any problems.

New Year's games for a small company

It is not difficult to find fun table contests for the New Year's holiday, the main thing is to be able to adapt them to your company. If it is small, then the entertainment should be selected accordingly.

Drove

You will need two RC cars. Two contestants prepare cars and a "track" to any point in the room, put a shot of vodka on their cars. Then, carefully, without splashing, they try to roll it to the destination, where they can drink. The game can be continued with a snack. You can also make it in the form of a relay, for this you have to split into teams, the first one must bring to the point and back, pass the baton to another neighbor, the last player drinks a glass or what is left in it.

Cheerful artist

The presenter thinks of something to the first player, he gets into a pose that characterizes what was asked, without voicing it. For example: a person is screwing in a lamp. In turn, each participant must adjust to the previous one so that a picture emerges. The latter stands up as an artist with a brush and easel to paint. He also tries to tell what exactly he "depicted". Then, everyone talks about their own posture.

"I never" (or "I never")

This is a comic confession. Each of the guests invited to, begins to confess with the phrase: "I never ...". For example: "I have never drunk tequila." But the answers must be progressive. That is, the one who has already confessed to the little things must continue to talk about something deeper. Drinking confessions can be very funny, the main thing is not to get carried away, otherwise you can give out the most intimate secrets.

Board games for a big fun company of adults

If a large get-together is going to the New Year, it is best to hold group, team ones.

let's drink

The company is divided into two groups and stands in a row against each other. Each of them has a disposable glass of wine in their hands (it is better not to take champagne and spirits, as you can choke). Place the glasses in everyone's right hand. On command, they must drink the neighbor in turn: first, the last person drinks the penultimate one, the next one, and so on. As soon as the first one has received his dose, he runs to the last one and treats him. Whoever finishes first will be the winners.

"Hostess"

A merry New Year's holiday is necessarily a lot of decorations. The company is divided into two halves, they are given boxes of the same size. Also, each team receives a certain number of different things: Christmas tree decorations, candy wrappers, sweets, napkins, souvenirs, etc. It is necessary to put everything in the boxes for a while and neatly, so that they close exactly without bulges. After a certain amount of alcohol, this is not so easy to do.

Whichever team puts things neat and faster will be the winner. The quality should not suffer, if so, you should organize a vote from people not participating in the competition.

"Tumbleweed"

Guests at the New Year's table are divided equally and sit on chairs opposite each other. An apple is placed on the first player's lap; they must, without hands, roll the apple over the knees from the first player to the last. If the fruit falls, the group has lost, but it can rehabilitate itself if it picks it up without hands and returns it to the very beginning.

"Drinkers"

It will be a relay race. We install two stools, on the stools are plastic glasses with an alcoholic drink. There should be as many of them as there are players. We divide the guests in half, according to gender, and put them behind each other, opposite each stool at some distance from it. Everyone's hands are behind their backs. Place a trash bin next to them. One at a time, they run up to the chair, drink any of the glasses without hands, then run back, throwing the empty containers into the trash, and return to the back of the line. Only then can the next person run.

Games at the table for a New Year's corporate party

The entertainment program can be of a table type. This scenario is tailored for a more shy group of people.

Funny singers

For this game, you should prepare in advance cards with any words related to the holiday, alcohol, New Year's heroes, etc. For example: Christmas tree, Snow Maiden, snow, vodka, wine, sparks, candles, frost, Santa Claus, gifts. Then a presenter is selected, who will appoint a player, pull out a card and voice the word itself. The selected person must sing a verse or chorus with that word in the song. No more than 10 seconds are given for reflection. This game can be carried out by breaking into teams, the result will be a greater number of songs performed.

Rhyme

All guests at the table stand in a circle. The leader has cards with the words "uh", "ah", "eh" and "oh". The player draws a card, and the others make a wish for him. For example, he draws out: "oh". The command says, "Hug three" or "Kiss three" or "Catch three." Here's an example of several wishes:

"Walk on your hands";
"Stand on your hands";
“Share the news”;
"Dance with guests";
"Sing in front of guests";

“Compliment everyone out loud”;
“Shout that you are a burdock”;
"Kiss of two at once";
"Crawl between two legs";
"Tell your desires out loud";
“Find out with your eyes closed two”;

"Make everyone laugh";
"Hug everyone";
"Give everyone a drink";
"Feed everyone."

You can come up with funny answers ad infinitum, the main thing is that the rhyme is observed.

Tell me about the hostess (s)

Everything is very simple here. Questions should be prepared for guests in advance, such as:

If it is a pair, then:

  • "Where did these people meet?"
  • "How many years have they been living together."
  • “Favorite vacation spot”.

Desires

The first participant is given a pen and a piece of paper. He briefly writes his great desire: "I want ...". The rest enter only adjectives such as: let it be fluffy, it should be iron, or simply - smelly, meaningless, and so on.

Completely adult, funny and cool entertainment

Adult games at the New Year's table are not suitable for every company - this should be taken into account. But after a certain amount of time, you can try to offer them something from the repertoire below and then navigate through the situation. The answers can be serious or funny.

Christmas tree

For the competition, you need to stock up on clothespins (preferably ones that do not break). First, attach all the toys to the clothespins by strings. Several couples of the opposite sex are called, men are blindfolded, for a certain period of time they must hook as many toys as possible on women's clothes. The game can be "diluted" by changing pairs and removing clothespins from other women. You can also change their roles - women will dress up men. And do not forget to evaluate each Christmas tree, because the one who has the most elegant will win, and only then, to the stormy applause of the company, remove the toys.

Fairy tale

Any short tale is selected, All participants in the New Year's table stand in a circle, leaving the center free. An author is appointed who reads a fairy tale, for example "Three Little Pigs", it is not very short, but easily reduced to a page. Then each in a circle, chooses a role for himself. And not only animated heroes, but also natural phenomena or objects. The tree, grass, even the phrase "lived - were" can be beaten.

The story begins: Once upon a time - there were (gone or gone “lived - were”) three pigs (went pigs). The sun was shining in the sky (the sky is shining, holding the sun in its hands). Piglets were lying on the grass ("grass" lay, or preferably three grasses, piglets were piled on it), etc. If there are few people, the freed heroes in the form of grass can take the following roles to continue the game.

You can play not only a fairy tale, but also a song or a poem, or you can come up with your own funny stories.

Sweet tooth

Several pairs of the opposite sex are selected for the game. Men are blindfolded, women are laid on tables or chairs (sports mats) prepared in advance. Napkins are placed on their bodies, on which chocolate candies are left without wrappers. Then a man is brought up to them, and he must find all the candies without hands (respectively, without eyes). It is not necessary to eat them. To avoid embarrassment, it is best to call spouses or a real couple. But adults, especially at the New Year's table, with a good sense of humor, which is seasoned with a glass of champagne, usually do not have problems.

Eat a banana

Several pairs are called. Men sit on chairs, squeeze a banana between their knees, women come up to their couples and, hiding their hands behind their backs, must peel and eat it. For the procedure, adults are given a certain amount of time. You can also use cucumbers instead of bananas.

Finally

New Year's games for a fun company should be prepared in advance. Especially if there are a lot of guests and among them there will be unfamiliar people about whom you need to learn as much as possible. Entertainment competitions at the New Year's table for adults are diluted with dancing or singing karaoke for a change.

Board games 2020 can be held both for fun and for incentive prizes. If you choose team adult games, then the vote count is done for each group. If the competitors are competing alone, reward them with chips, and then the prize goes to the winner by counting the chips. The rest of the adults at the New Year's table will be content with consoling gifts.

Any hospitable host carefully prepares to receive his guests. He composes the menu, sets the table, seats the guests invited to the celebration, offers to drink to everyone present, and the fun begins. But without games and contests, such an event turns into an ordinary get-together. With each glass they drink, the guests begin to amuse themselves: first, at the table, someone speaks, and everyone listens to him, then they talk in small groups, and by the end of the holiday everyone speaks and no one listens to anyone.

Not to say that it’s boring, but it’s not a holiday either. You can diversify such fun with dances, but there is also a "but" here. The room is small, no dancing or playing any outdoor games. But, on the other hand, a good host will find an alternative to this: table games. By choosing the contests offered to you, you can cheerfully entertain any company: from a narrow circle of people to a large number of them. And, of course, in the role of the leader - the owner himself.

Drinking games and contests for the New Year

1. "Confusion"

Requisites: 1 sheet, 1 pen.

After each question from the host, the guest writes a word on top of the leaf, wraps it so that the next guest does not see it, and the leaf for the next questions is passed clockwise in a circle. Also, subsequent answers to questions are hidden by a fold. The number of questions should be equal to the number of invitees.

Sample polls of the presenter: “Who?”, “Where”, “When?”, “What did you do”, “To whom?”, “Why?”, “What happened?”.

When a leaf is opened, sometimes funny texts are obtained. For example: "Donkey ... In Karaganda ... At midnight ... I brushed my teeth ... Tom Cruise ... To hurt ... Hat!" Delirium turns out to be utter, but quite fun when everyone is in a good mood.

2. "Question-Answer"

Requisites: 1 pen, 1 sheet.

The principle is the same with bending a leaf and passing it around in a circle. The host is not required, the host is also involved. The first player writes a question and bends the corner, the second - the answer to the first player and his own question, and also bends, passes to the next, and so on in a circle. Only when transmitting, he asks a leading question aloud, for example: "Where?"

After that, the text unfolds, and everyone knows their own question and answer. For example, it turns out the following: "Where did Petya take his girlfriend yesterday?" - "Rinse in the washing machine." The closer the relationship in the company, the funnier the phrases sound. Ambiguous.

3. "Nonsense in verse"

Requisites: 1 pen, 1 sheet.

Again, the principle is the same with the leaflet and the transmission. Only all the guests try to write poetry. The rhythm is given to the verses. For example, this: "Tra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-there, tra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-there." Each, according to the rhythm, writes a line and passes it on to the other. But each odd guest will have to say the last written word so that the second comes up with a line and the word rhymes at the end. Accordingly, it will be more difficult for each even person.

As a result, you might get something like this:

In the morning, sitting on the fence

Kissed Uncle Boreas

And then I'm in an open field

Fried profiteroles in oil

Believe me, it will be very funny for a fun company, especially since everyone can reveal their talent. And what a memory in poetry will remain after such a wonderful evening!

4. Draw a star contest

Requisites: each guest - a pen, a piece of paper and a small mirror.

This competition is for honesty, and the owner needs to be offered something symbolic as a prize. Guests are given sheets of paper with dots. Each guest needs to draw a line from point to point to make a star. The difficulty lies in the fact that these lines must be drawn while looking into the mirror standing in front of him. Whoever does it first gets a prize.

Attention! This game has another option - for adults, the presence of children is undesirable. A star (or a more complicated drawing) must be given to one player to draw in the same way. It is best if it is the most talkative man (for example, his name is Vasya). The host keeps the outcome of the game a secret, and he writes down every word of the playing guest, because the "chip" will be revealed at the very end.

And so, when the drawing is over, the presenter says: "And now we reveal the secret that our Vasya said in bed on his wedding night!" And he reads on a sheet of paper what this guest said in the process of drawing. It will turn out something like this: “Oh! Went in the wrong place! OH! Does not work! Doesn't turn! " Etc. And all this with the laughter of the company.

5. "Broken phone"

Props: walnuts or hazelnuts in shells.

Each player takes a few nuts into his mouth and whispers a word (or phrase) in a circle very quickly in his ear. And so on until the last player. After that, you need to find out - who heard what. So, for example, the phrase "White Day" will be transformed by indistinct transmissions into "A frail stump." Or even funnier.

6. Three games: "Pass it to another, no hands"

1.Props: medium-sized orange.

The orange is clamped by the first player between the chin and chest. And in the same way, sitting at the table, each player hands-free transfers this fruit from one to another.

2. Requisites: pencil or cigarette.

The first player squeezes a cigarette or pencil between the upper lip and nose. And in the same way, without the help of hands, transfers to another so that his neighbor, the same object, will receive in the same way: holding it between his nose and lip. The game goes in a circle. Laughter at the table, due to funny grimaces, is guaranteed.

3. Props: a balloon.

The game is similar to the first two. Also, in a circle, without the help of hands, you must pass the balloon holding it with your lips and drawing in the air. It would seem - nothing complicated, but when laughter "chokes", it is very problematic to take the ball from a neighbor.

7. Competition "Abyrvalg"

Requisites: 1 pen, 1 sheet.

Remember, the film "Heart of a Dog", when Sharikov, turning into a man, repeated the phrase "Abyrvalg". As it turned out later, he spoke the opposite abbreviation "GlavRyba". The game is built on the same principle.

Some of the guests, writes, secretly from everyone, a difficult word (to make it easier to read it yourself, just the opposite). Then he announces it to everyone present. The winner is the one who guesses the word correctly first.

8. "Favorite pens"

The game is good if there are many couples (spouses, or lovers) sitting at the table. One player is blindfolded. Guests change seats. This is done so that the blindfolded player does not understand where and whose hands are drawn from. He must guess the hands of his beloved by touch. The main thing is to remove all jewelry from your fingers before playing.

9. "Like it or not like it"

The presenter asks everyone in a circle to name which part of the body of his neighbor on the left he likes and which does not. This does not mean that you have to be objective, but simply, for a laugh. For example, one of the players said: "I like the ear, no nose." And then, when everyone voiced their choice, the presenter says: "What you liked - kiss, what you didn't like - spit on it." So you have to - spit on the nose, kiss in the ear. And someone will have to "smack" not only the ear!

10. "Hat of desires"

Requisites: Hat, notes with wishes.

The game resembles the famous "Crocodile", only you don't have to go anywhere, and if you want to show pantomime with the whole body of your body, just get up and move the chair. The game is very suitable for celebrating the New Year.

In advance, the owner (who is also the host) writes wishes on the notes. The guests, pulling out the notes in turn, must, without words, one at a time, depict what is written in them. Who of the guests guesses - that will come true next year. But, in the notes you cannot write one word, For example: "Love", "Health", "Happiness", etc. It's too easy.

It has to be complicated. For example: "Endless happiness", "Siberian health", "Tender love", "Huge money", "Desired child", "Rest by the sea", etc. It is the one who guessed the full phrase who is waiting for it next year.

11. "Hat with surprises"

Requisites: Hat, notes about surprises.

In this game, you can only count on the generosity of the owners. The game is very similar to the previous one. The same principle: each in turn takes out a note and depicts what is written in it. Whoever guesses will get a surprise from the owners.

Again, if you write simply: "Comb" or "Mirror", then they are easy to portray and the competition will end quickly. It is necessary to complicate, and the main thing is that the prize should be received by the one who correctly names this subject in full, written in the note. It will be more difficult to solve.

For example, options: "Figurine in the form of a frog with a coin", "Dummy from a baby bottle", "Set of plastic forks", "Christmas tree toy" Snowflake "," Colorless varnish "," Peeled tangerine "," Fifty-ruble bill "," Promotional booklet with a discount ”, etc. Little things - but pleasant for both guests and hosts. By the way, this way the owners can get rid of unnecessary trinkets in the house.

12. "What is MPS"

The game is "one-off" for one full company, but very interesting. It is advisable to play it from the beginning, or from the middle of the fun, when everyone is already slightly "warmed up", but not yet drunk. By the way, it is not necessary to play this game in such a way that everyone put aside their affairs and completely went into it with their heads. You can "dilute" it with toasts, snacks and even other contests in between times. The main thing is to puzzle the main Player.

It is he who is chosen from the company - the main player, who is really not familiar with this game and does not know what "MPS" is. Please, do not confuse with the Ministry of Ways of Communication, it has nothing to do with it. The player leaves the room so as not to hear anything.

The host explains to everyone that the Ministry of Railways is “My Right Neighbor”. That is, the guest at the table, which each guest sits on the right hand, is the MPS. The main Player enters and he is asked to figure out what "MPS" is. He can ask leading questions in a circle, and guests should only answer "Yes" or "No".

Funny, funny contests will allow you to have a good rest and have nice fun at the New Year's party. The presenters who are entrusted with organizing the entertainment part, we offer an original selection of games, contests and quizzes for the scenario of a festive corporate party!

To make the New Year's holiday more successful, we have made for you a selection of the most interesting contests and fun.

Drinking

To begin with, we propose to include cool contests at the table in the program of the New Year's corporate party at work.

What will Santa Claus give?

Attributes: small pieces of paper, pens (or pencils).

Before sitting down at the festive table, guests receive a small piece of paper and write what gift they would like to wish for themselves in the new year. This can be, for example, a new apartment, car, dog, travel, money, lover ...

The leaves are rolled up and put into a beautiful box, a hat ... At some point in the evening, the host asks everyone to draw out an arbitrary piece of paper and find out what good Santa Claus has prepared for him for the next year. Everyone has different desires, so it will be fun! And the wish will come true if you save the piece of paper until the next holiday, and then tell about what has come true.

The leaves can be attached with threads to a rope / fishing line and then, as once in childhood, blindfolded with the help of scissors, cut off a wish. Another option is to tie notes to balloons and distribute to those present.

I want-want-want! ... Branded hochuha

Another game about desires. But no attributes this time.

5-7 volunteers are called. In turn, they name their wish for the next year. You need to speak quickly, without delaying the line! Stopped for more than 5 seconds - the player is eliminated. We play until the victory - until the last player! (Small prize is possible).

Let's raise a glass! New Year's toasts

When, in the midst of a feast, the guests are bored, invite them not only to fill their glasses, but to make a toast or congratulations to everyone present.

There are two conditions - each speech must be one sentence long and begin with letters of the alphabet in order!

For example:

  • A - I am absolutely sure that the new year will be the best!
  • B - Be healthy and happy!
  • Q - In general, I am glad to be with you today!
  • D - Pride is bursting at the sight of those gathered around this table! ..

The funniest moment is when the letters e, e, y, y, y come into play.

Variant of the game: each next toast begins with the last letter of the previous congratulation. For example: “I am very glad if you support me with applause! “And all the best to you…”. To complicate things, you can forbid to start a toast with prepositions, conjunctions and interjections.

"I'll sing about Frost!" Compose a ditty

Those wishing to write during the evening, and then submit to the audience a ditty, in which there are pre-set New Year words or themes by the presenter. It could be “New Year, Santa Claus, Snow Maiden”.

You can compose non-juggles - with a non-rhymed last line, but keeping the given rhythm of a ditty. Example:

Hello red santa claus
you brought us presents!
The most important is ten days
let's just rest.

Snow news

Attributes: Cards with word-nouns. The cards contain 5 completely unrelated nouns. It is advisable to include at least 1 winter word there.

The participant pulls out a card, reads out the words they have inherited and within 30 seconds (although if those present at the party are already, well, very tired, then 1 minute is possible) comes up with news from one sentence. And all the words from the card should fit in it.

Nouns can be transformed into other parts of speech (adjectives, verbs, adverbs ...) and changed as you like, and the news must certainly be interesting and funny.

You can start the news with the words "Sensation!"

For example:

  • 1 card - “road, chair, roof, bike, snowman”. Sentence - "Outside the city, a huge snowman was discovered with a rode roof on a road bike with a chair instead of a seat!"
  • 2 card - “fence, sound, ice floe, shop, tree”. Sentence - “Near the store, under the fence, someone left a Christmas tree with sounding pieces of ice”.

Try this: it will be even more interesting if you prepare a lot of cards, where one different word will be written, and the players themselves will draw out the 5 words they have inherited.

Fun guaranteed!

Love / dislike at the neighbor

The game does not require any available tools! But requires a sufficient degree of emancipation or relaxed relationships in the team.

The presenter invites everyone present to name which part of the body (clothing is possible) they like on the one sitting on the left, and which part they do not like. For example: "My neighbor on the right has my left ear and I don't like the protruding pocket."

After everyone has named and remembered what was said, the presenter asks you to kiss (or stroke) what you like and bite (or slap) what you don't like.

Not everyone can play, but only 6-8 brave ones are called in a circle.

Our friend is an orange!

This game can be played at the New Year's party in the office only if all colleagues are well acquainted. Or at least everyone has a friend or girlfriend in the team.

The presenter thinks of a person from those present at the table. And the participants try to guess who it is with the help of leading questions.

But the questions are not simple - these are associations! Whoever guesses the first will win.

Questions are something like this:

  • - What fruit / vegetable does it look like? - For an orange.
  • - What food is associated with? - With pies.
  • - What animal? - With a mole.
  • - What music? - With choral singing.
  • - What flower?
  • - What plant?
  • - By car?
  • - Color?
  • - Part of the world?

Yin-yang bumps

Attributes: 2 cones - one painted white, the other black. If you have nothing to dye with, you can wrap them with colored woolen threads of the desired color.

The course of fun: the host is chosen from the guests, who will have these two bumps. They are signals of his answers, because he cannot speak at all. He makes a word, and the rest, with the help of leading questions, try to guess what he is up to.

The whole secret is that he can only silently show: YES is a white cone, NO is a black one. If neither this nor that, he can lift both at once.

The first guesser wins.

Instead of cones, you can take multi-colored Christmas balls. But you need to be careful with glass ones, especially if the presenter has already drunk a couple of glasses of champagne.

Associations on a piece of paper. Corrupted phone of associations

Players' attributes: a piece of paper and a pen.

The first person writes any noun word on his piece of paper and speaks it quietly in the ear of a neighbor. He comes up with his own association for this word, writes it down and in a whisper passes it on to the next one.

This is how associations are transmitted along a chain ... The latter speaks aloud the word passed to him. It is compared with the original source and it is fun to find out at which link in the chain of associations the failure occurred: everyone reads out their nouns.

Funny neighbor

Any number of guests plays.

We stand in a circle, and the driver begins: he performs an action with his neighbor that will make him laugh. He can take him by the ear, pat his shoulders, tap his nose, flick his hand, touch his knee ... That's all, those standing in a circle must repeat the same movement with your neighbor / neighbor.

The one who laughs drops out.

Then the driver makes the next movement, everyone repeats. If nobody laughed, a new movement. And so on until the last "Not Laughing".

New Year's rhyming

The driver reads out little-known New Year's / Winter's quatrains. But he says aloud only the first 2 lines.

The rest are invited to participate in the competition for the best rhyme writer.

Guests come up with and rhyme the last two lines... Then the funniest and most original poet is chosen, and then the original of the poem is read out amid general laughter and amusement.

Drawing competition "I see-see the New Year!"

Those who wish are given sheets A-4 with arbitrary lines and felt-tip pens. Everyone has the same image (a copier will help you).

The task is to finish painting a picture on a New Year's theme.

Of course, everyone knows who in the team understands painting best of all. Here he or she will evaluate the results. Whoever is more interesting is the winner! There can be many winners - a holiday!

Movable

Nimble bump

Attributes: pine or spruce cones.

The course of the game: guests can either sit at the table, or stand in a circle (if they are too busy by this time). The task is to pass the bump to each other. Condition - you can only transfer it by holding it on the back of two palms. Try it, it's hard enough ... But also fun!

You can also split into equal teams, and which one will pass its bump faster, that one won.

My Frost is the most beautiful of all!

You will need various items such as garlands, funny hats, scarves, beads, ribbons. socks, mittens, handbags ... Two or three ladies who want to be in the role of Snow Maidens for a few minutes each choose a man to turn him into Santa Claus.

From the items prepared in advance on the table, the Snow Maidens create a cheerful image of their hero. In principle, this can be finished by choosing the most successful and funniest model ...

The Snow Maiden can take snowflakes for herself, which will help both with the "decoration" of Santa Claus and with advertising.

Snow paths

This is a very successful game to identify pairs for the next New Year contests.

Attributes: colored ribbons of winter shades (blue, light blue, silver ...). Length 4-5 meters. It is necessary to cut the ribbons in half in advance and sew them, mixing up the halves.

3-4 pairs of players are called. The presenter holds a basket / box to which there are multi-colored ribbons, the ends of which hang down.

Host: “In the New Year, the paths were covered with snow ... The blizzard confused the paths in the house of Santa Claus. We must unravel them! Take each in pairs at the tip of the tape that you like, and pull the track towards you. The couple who draws their ribbon earlier than others will receive a prize! "

The players choose their pair and the color of the ribbon, expecting that there will be a single ribbon at the ends of the same color. But the fun is that the ribbons are sewn differently and the pairs are completely unexpected.

Happy people train

Everyone loves round dances: both small and large (and those who are embarrassed to admit it)!

Arrange a round dance-train for your guests. It is clear that it can be difficult for party-goers to raise themselves to a mobile competition, so come up with branded clickers.

- Now those who are attached to the locomotive
a) wants a lot of wealth for himself,
b) wants to be loved,
c) who wants a lot of health for themselves,
d) who dreams of a trip to the sea, etc.

The host drives the locomotive around the hall, it fills up and fills up with guests. And when it is clear that no one else can be pulled out from the tables, dance-movements of the engine are arranged (they can be shown by the presenter) to the daring music.

New Year's term deposit

Attributes: candy wrappers.

Two couples are chosen, each one a man and a woman. It is desirable that men should be dressed approximately the same (if one has a jacket, then the other should be in a jacket).

- Dear women, on the threshold of the New Year, and you need to have time to make an urgent deposit in the bank. Here is some money for you (each of the women is given a pack of candy wrappers). These are initial payments. You will put them in the bank for a super term deposit. Your men are your banks. Only one condition - each "bill" in a separate cell! Pockets, sleeves, collars, lapels and other secluded places can become cells. Contributions can be made while the music is playing. Just remember where you put your money. Let's start!

The task is given 1-2 minutes.

- Attention! Intermediate check: those who managed to make a full investment (not a single wrapper was left in their hands) receives an additional point. All the money is in business!

- And now, dear depositors, you must quickly withdraw cash - after all, we know that it was a super quick deposit. You will shoot each with a blindfold, but you always remember what and where you put it. Music! Let's start!

The trick is that men are swapped, and women blindfolded "search" someone else's partner, not knowing about it. Everyone has fun!

We are actors anywhere!

Those wishing to participate are given cards with tasks. None of them know in advance what they will have to face.

The presenter announces that the participants need to walk in front of everyone, depicting what is written on the cards. Here's a rough list:

  • tightrope walker over an abyss,
  • duck in the yard,
  • teenager with a stalled bike
  • shy girl,
  • shy Japanese woman in kimono in the rain,
  • a toddler,
  • heron in the swamp,
  • Joseph Kobzon at the speech,
  • policeman in the market,
  • a hare along the path,
  • model on the podium,
  • Arab sheikh,
  • cat on the roof, etc.

The tasks can be supplemented and expanded with any ideas.

Funny drawing "Bear in a den or slow-witted spectators"

Attention: played only once!

The presenter invites the person who wants to portray a pantomime, takes him to a separate room and gives him a "secret" task - portray without words bear (hare or kangaroo).

In the meantime, the facilitator's assistant agrees with the others NOT to understand his movements.

The volunteer returns and begins to show the selected animal with movements and gestures. The guests pretend not to understand and name anything but the one they are shown.

- Walks, waddling? It's a platypus (a lame fox, a tired boar)!
- Licks his paw? The cat must be washing itself.
Etc.

It happens that the depicting person is surprised by the lack of understanding of the guests, begins to get angry: “Why are you so stupid? It's so easy! " And if he shows hellish patience, he shows again and again - he has iron nerves! But it also amuses the staff gathered at the party. Do not delay it. When the player starts to run out of imagination and patience, you can guess the right animal.

3. Competitions for music

Can you imagine the New Year without music, songs and dancing? That's right, no! For additional entertainment and fun, a lot of music games-contests for the New Year's corporate party have been invented.

Scene "Clip Song"

This is the most creative musical entertainment for a New Year's corporate party.

Prepare musical accompaniment in advance: songs about Santa Claus, Christmas tree, Snow Maiden ... and simple attributes that will help the players to dress up (beads, hats, felt boots, scarves ...)

The task is to make a corporate video for the song "It's cold in winter for the little Christmas tree." We need an operator who will shoot the clip on camera.

The participants, accompanied by song accompaniment, begin to depict all the actions about which they are sung: "a gray little coward bunny jumped under a Christmas tree" - the hero jumps, "they hung beads" - the team hangs beads on an impromptu live "Christmas tree".

You can split into two teams (employees and employees) and each will shoot its own video. It is desirable to display the results on a large screen and compare. To reward the winners with branded souvenirs or applause.

Lazy Dances Competition

The players sit in a circle on chairs and begin to dance to the merry New Year's music-song. But these are strange dances - no one gets up!

At the command of the leader, they dance with different parts of the body:

  • First we dance with our elbows!
  • Then shoulders,
  • feet,
  • fingers
  • lips,
  • eyes, etc.

The rest choose the coolest dance.

Shape-shifting song

This is a comic game that you can play at any time of the holiday. The presenter pronounces the lines from the New Year / winter song, but with the words the other way around. The task of everyone is who is faster guess the original and sing it... The one guessing is given a chip (candy wrapper, candy, cone ...), so that later it would be easier to calculate the winner in the entire competition.

The lines might look something like this:

- A birch died in the steppe. - The Forest Raised a Christmas Tree.
- The old month is slow, nothing will happen for a long time. - New Year is rushing to us, soon everything will happen.
- White-white steam stood on the ground. - Blue-blue frost lay on the wires.
- One gray donkey, one gray donkey. - Three white knights, three white knights.
- A brave white wolf sat on a baobab. - Little gray bunny coward rode under the Christmas tree.
- Be silent, Santa Claus, where will you go? - Tell me, Snegurochka, where have you been?
- You read me a book about 1 hour. - I'll sing you a song about five minutes.
- A huge palm tree is hot in summer. - The little Christmas tree is cold in winter.
- Weights were removed, left the chain. - They hung the beads, got up in a round dance.
- I ran away from you, Snegurochka, wiped off a little sweet smiles. - I ran after you, Santa Claus. I shed many bitter tears.
- Ay, heat, heat, warm you! Warm you and your camel. - Oh, frost-frost, do not freeze me! Don't freeze me, my horse.
“Your worst purchase is me. - My best present is you.

Song Contest "Musical Hat of Santa Claus"

Attributes: we put words from New Year's songs in the cap.

The players pass it in a circle with musical accompaniment. When the music stops, the person who received the hat at that moment takes out a card with the word and must remember / sing a piece of the song where it occurs.

You can play in teams. Then the hat is passed from representative to representative of each team. You can limit the time for completing the task and reward the team for each guessed right.

Not sure if your guests are so quick-thinking - write not one word, but a short phrase. Then it will be easier to remember the song!

Candlelight dance

A dynamic, but at the same time very calm and gentle dance competition.

Put on some slow music and invite the couples to light the sparklers and dance. The couple, whose fire will burn longer, won and she will receive a prize.

If you want to add spice to your dance - choose tango!

An old song in a new way

Print the lyrics of famous (not even New Year's) songs and prepare a music score without words (karaoke music).

It can be Karabas Barabas, Snow Maiden, an evil policeman, kind Baba Yaga, and even your boss.

Quietly loudly

A well-known song is selected, which all guests begin to sing in chorus.

At the command "Quiet!" sing a song to themselves. At the command "Loud!" out loud again.

And since everyone sang at their own pace, the loud chorus starts with different words. And so it is repeated several times, all having fun.

4. Team

Team games for the New Year's corporate party will once again strengthen the team spirit and solidarity, playing the role of an unscheduled team building.

Competition - relay race "Boots of Santa Claus"

Attributes: 2 pairs of very large boots (or one).

This game is played around a tree or around chairs by teams.

Those who play at the signal of the driver or the sound of music put on large felt boots and run a race around the tree (chairs). If you only have one pair of such winter shoes, then let the teams compete against the clock.

With felt boots, you can still come up with many different relay races: divide into teams and run, passing them in a team to each other; carry on outstretched arms so as not to drop; put on felt boots and run backwards (it's difficult to do in large ones), etc. Imagine!

Don't drop the lump

Attributes: "snow" lumps made from crumpled paper; large spoons (wooden ones can be used).

The course of the relay competition: two teams of equal number are going to. At the command of the driver (or by the sound of music), the first participants should quickly run around the room back and forth, carrying a lump in a spoon and trying not to drop it. Do not take too long routes - just make a circle around the tree.

The difficulty is that the paper is light and strives to fall to the floor all the time.

They play until the last person who comes running in the team. The first one won!

Chancellery wishes a Happy New Year

Attributes: 2-3 sheets of Whatman paper (depending on how many teams are playing), newspapers, magazines, glue and scissors.

In 10-15 minutes, the teams must cut out words from the paper editions offered to them, glue them on a sheet and compose an original greeting to those present on the New Year.

You should get a little funny text. You can supplement the poster with clippings of pictures from the proposed magazines.

The most creative congratulation wins.

Christmas tree beads

Offer the teams plenty of paper clips (preferably multi-colored plastic). Task: in the allotted time (5 minutes, no more), long chains are assembled to pleasant music.

Whoever, in the end, has the "beads" longer than the rivals, that team wins.

Assemble a team or "Friendly mosaic"

The competition requires a little preparation. It is necessary to photograph the teams, print the photo on a printer and cut it into small pieces. The task of the teams is to add a photo of their team in the shortest possible time.

Those who complete their puzzle faster win.

Desirable so that the photos are large.

The snowman turns ...

Two teams. Each has 4 participants and 8 balls (blue and white can be used). Each one has large letters C_N_E_G_O_V_I_K written on it. The snowman "melts" and turns ... into other words.

The driver makes simple riddles, and the players build the guessed words from the balls with letters.

5. Bonus - contests for a purely female team!

These games are suitable for a New Year's corporate party of doctors, teachers or kindergarten.

Rope for the brave

This competition is exclusively for an adult company. The guests are divided into two equal teams.

At the signal of the driver and to the perky music, the players take off parts of their clothes in order to tie a long, long rope out of them.

When “Stop!” Sounds, noticeably undressed participants begin to measure the length of their chains of clothes.

The longest wins!

I'll dress up for the New Year! or "Outfit in the dark"

Two participants stand near their chest / box / basket, which contain different items of clothing. They are first blindfolded, and then they must put on everything from the chest as quickly as possible.

Speed ​​and correctness are appreciated. Although everyone is more cheerful and from the fact that things get mixed up on the players.

The snow queen vice versa

Inventory: ice cubes from the freezer.

Several applicants for the crown of the Snow Queen are selected. They pick up an ice cube and, on command, must melt it as quickly as possible, turning it into water.

You can give one at a time, you can give several pieces of ice, putting them in bowls.

The first to complete the task wins. She is awarded the title of "The Hottest Snow Queen".

Will Cinderella go to the New Year's ball?

Mixed beans, peppers, rose hips, peas lie on plates in front of two participants (you can take any ingredients). The number of grains is small so that the game does not run for too long (you can check it experimentally before the holiday).

After the players are blindfolded, they begin to sort the fruits into piles by touch. Whoever copes first will go to the ball!

Game "In what words does the spruce grow?"

The festive feast is conducive to quiet games at the table. And even at the most cheerful and noisy holiday, there is always a place for such games. You can, for example, play "words". One at a time, remember and name the words inside which "spruce grows."

Despite the fact that there are a lot of such words, it is not so easy to play such a game without preparation, so do not introduce any additional restrictions when naming a word (the number of syllables, the location of the “ate” in the word, etc.).

The only condition is that you need to call common nouns in the initial form. The participant who cannot offer his own version of the word (of course, you cannot repeat it), drops out of the game or gives up his phantom, which will later be played out with others.

The words: Blizzard, caramel, jelly, dolphin, orange, writer, driver, delta, teacher, carousel, ashtray, furniture, gorge "," Slacker "," drops "," briefcase "," stranded "," target "," panel "," rail "," housewarming "," potatoes "," mill "," dumpling "," Monday "and dr.

Quiz "What if there is no Christmas tree?"

In some countries, due to the hot climate in the absence of coniferous forests or due to national traditions, the Christmas tree (or better to say, a plant) is not at all the green thorny beauties of the Christmas tree. Let's clarify what residents of different countries decorate their houses with before the New Year holidays.

Since questions on this exotic topic require special knowledge, we will introduce hints for respondents with three possible answers - participants need to choose the correct one. Each of them has the same amount of conventional game units, for example, 5 spruce cones, or, more simply, “shisha”. The presenter of the competition asks a question, offering to choose the correct answer. Before joining the active game, the participant assigns a “price” to the question that does not exceed the amount on his personal account. Further, he can give an answer himself and, if successful, increase his account by the amount of the assigned cost of the question or transfer the question to another participant. In any case, only one of the answer options is accepted. If the player who received the question answered correctly, the “cost” of the question goes to his account, and the account of the previous participant remains unchanged. If the answer is wrong, then both players lose their game "shis". The next question of the presenter is answered by the guest sitting at the festive table to the left (right) of the participant who answered the previous question.
